Oklahoma's first recumbent rally?
Though I've never been able to obtain a recumbent for a variety of reasons (mainly financial and vision loss), when I saw this in my inbox earlier, I figured I'd pass it along. I'm hoping that there is enough interest to make this an annual event... might even be able to attend myself (not holding breath, though).
I intentionally left out the direct email link and phone number. If anyone is interested, you can find that by doing a simple web search for the shop listed at the beginning of the announcement.

I bought a bike from Oklahoma Recumbents a few years ago. Nice guy who loves recumbents who was running a side business from his small town furniture store 30-35 miles or so outside Oklahoma City.

As this is the same day as the 50+ Forums annual pie ride, you could advertize it as a way to do your pie ride.
It could also be posted on the BROL (Bent Rider On Line) board.
